Perfect Waffles
All Clad Waffle Maker with Fluffy Pancake Batter
My new All Clad waffle maker is proving to be a favorite kitchen appliance.
I tried the yeasted waffles and, while good, they were not as good as my traditional pancake recipe, adapted to make a fluffy batter that results in a light tasty waffle.

We have been using the “original” Uncle Siggy Pancake recipe for waffles and love them! One of the kid’s favorites! I’ll need to try the recipe modification the next time we have waffles!
We are slaves to the waffle light at our house! We enjoy a family recipe from my grandfather. Over 50 years ago my mother had to stand over my grandfathers shoulder and take notes, including dumping out ingredients into separate bowls to be measured to find out exact amounts as my grandfather did everything by “feel”. In our family Bill is now the “Waffle Meister” and has finessed my grandfathers recipe into his own. The success of our waffle recipe? A couple of heaping tablespoons of graham flour, egg whites and yolks beaten separately and homemade vanilla! Waffles for dinner?
Thanks, Lise’. I had to look up the meaning of Graham Flour, pasted below. Can you tell us what you mean by homemade vanilla?

Not to be confused with Gram flour.
Graham flour is a type of whole wheat flour named after the American Presbyterian minister Rev. Sylvester Graham (1794-1851), an early advocate for dietary reform. According to the Larousse Gastronomique, Graham despised processed white flour and believed that bran was the cure-all for the bad eating habits of his compatriots.
